X P0740
T/C clutch solenoid valve I ; TCM detects an improper voltage
drop when it tries to operate the solenoid valve.
T/C CLUTCH SOL/V , TCC SOLENOID/

Take batt out for 30 min to clear the codes; maybe it never returns...

STILL:
Time to check voltage att batt, and TCU. If Alternator supply is ok, clean connectors (this is a very time consuming job, 2 days if done throughly. DIY).

Smile Fixed!

My problem has been fixed.

thank you guys for all your help

After getting a diagnostic done at nissan, the problem appeared to have been a faulty solenoid.

I took it to a shop that a friend recommended and had the solenoid assembly replaced (shift solenoid valve)


The car now shifts much easier!
Engine light gone.

thank you guys for all your help
